Hid at Home all Week

I hate admitting to being a recluse at times but I have not been up to par at all this past week. All I know is that I have to kick myself into gear.  Tomorrow I am going to a nature shoot which should help.  I cannot use the weather as an excuse anymore [...]

Lost Boys Movie

Thought it was appropriate to watch this movie again since I am once again getting another blood transfusion.  I am hopeful this is the last time that the stupid doctor error gets in the way of me having a better life.  I am in process of trying to make him pay for his error.  [...]

Awaiting News From Doc

I am awaiting news from the doctor whom I wish to sue.  I think my email to him was well constructed and explained the losses I have suffered due to his mistake. He is checking with his insurance to see how to handle things.  I am hopefully they will tell him to just settle.  [...]

Change of Heart and Health Update

Tried being Veggie , did not work out

I really thought it was better for me not to eat animals and attempt the vegetarian thing.  However after fighting to get enough protein and other nutrition and speaking with doctors, I decided, screw it.  If I go to hell for eating Elcee, tough

Eating Some Pasta

I am just chilling at home and made myself some pa-sketti. 

Wish me Luck

I am giving up cigs and caffeine for good.  It screws with my ability to get a good night’s sleep and makes me irritable.   It also gives me heartburn and acid tummy.  And since I do a healthy diet, seems reasonable I should remove these other toxins too.  I am usually not an [...]

New Born Vegan

I did nothing in the way of photos since last cocktail night on thursday. I am going tonight to the abbey for an anniversary party. It should be fairly routine. I have been feeling a little better health wise due to the medication I am taking for digestion. I have a condition known as [...]
